Elizabeth Carter has spent her life as the backbone of her family, sacrificing her dreams for her husband and children in their quiet Oregon home. She has always put everyone else first, her own desires fading into the background of daily life.

But when a terminal diagnosis changes everything, Liz is forced to confront the life she has lived and the time she has left. As her family grapples with the reality of losing her-her husband's fear masked by practicality, her daughter's love tangled with distance, and her son's quiet, watchful support-Liz makes a decision that shocks them all: she will no longer live on anyone else's terms.

Through tears, arguments, and moments of breathtaking clarity, Liz embarks on a transformative journey to rediscover herself. Along the way, she reclaims her voice, her joy, and the pieces of her she thought she'd lost forever.

This is a story of love, resilience, and the courage to take charge of your own narrative. Join Liz as she learns that even in the face of an ending, there's still time for a new beginning.

The Grean Household by uninstalledproxy402

"It was a mistake..." She told her mother, folding her hands into each other. "Marrying him..." Her mother said nothing, she simply sat there as her only daughter stood across from her, on the verge of collapsing from bruised ribs and cracked shins. "Mom." She wanted to reach out, softly tap her aging mother. Though that was the restriction of her life. The binding stereotype that she was gentle and slow to anger. In reality, what wanted to explode from her ribs was a scream of an animal, and the tears of repressed rage and fear. She wanted to throw her body onto the floor, but the thought made her damaged body ache more. There was no response from her mother. The deafening silence reminded her of her own quietness as her husband shouted at her, his fists bloody. He told her that she was only a tool for his amusement and a money-whore for her indigent family. She was nothing else but a tool for both parties. And she was starting to believe him. --------------------- Sarah Johnsen's life spirals from the normal gritty resilient fight to a serene wonderland. On the outside, she's married to a kind family with untold riches, but on the inside, her husband is the devil himself. Forcefully married at 18, Sarah was forced to kill her own dreams of becoming a doctor in order to bind her poor family to the rich bastards of Glendale by marrying their youngest; Oliver Grean. Their arrangement had the ability to brew the largest timespan of misery any of them has ever known. From lost toddlers to paid staged kidnappings, the binding of the two families, the Johnsen's and the Grean's created a mixture of chaos, confusion, sorrow, fear, grief, and dangerous rage. And there seems to be no haven to escape to. Or is there?
